Donna Lundy | 88 comments I was wondering if this book Jungla Jungla by Yossi Ghinsberg is maybe a version of the same book as above Jungle: A Harrowing True Story of Survival, but in another language like Spanish? They are both by the same author and jungla means jungle in Spanish. I am not sure how to find out & I didn't want to combine them if it is not. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Thanks Scott, so you think I should combine them?

lethe | 16359 comments Worldcat used to provide the original title of translated books in the book record. Unfortunately since the overhaul the original title is not visible anymore to the end user, but it can still be helpful to check.

In this case, the summaries of the English and Spanish editions prove they are the same: https://www.worldcat.org/nl/search?q=...
